Affiliate Link Disclosure Policy
Website: https://www.cure4affiliateblues.com
Last updated: November 19, 2025
1. Purpose of This Disclosure
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and other consumer-protection authorities require that website owners disclose when they have a financial relationship with a company, product, or service they mention. Because www.cure4affiliateblues.com teaches and talks about affiliate marketing, it’s especially important that we model transparent practices.
This page explains how affiliate links work on this Site and how we get compensated.
2. What Is an Affiliate Link?
An affiliate link is a special link that tracks referrals from this Site to another company’s website. If you click an affiliate link on cure4affiliateblues.com and then make a purchase (or sometimes even just sign up), we may receive a commission or other benefit at no additional cost to you.
Some links may use cookies or tracking technology provided by the merchant or affiliate network to make sure we get proper credit.
3. How We Use Affiliate Links on This Site
- We publish content about affiliate marketing, tools, trainings, and platforms.
- Some of the products/services we mention are ones we are affiliated with.
- When we include an affiliate link, it is because we believe the product or service is relevant for readers who are trying to “cure the affiliate blues” — i.e., get unstuck and start seeing results.
- Not every link on the Site is an affiliate link, but you should assume that links to products, trainings, or software may be affiliate links.
4. No Extra Cost to You
Clicking an affiliate link and making a purchase through that link does not increase your cost. In many cases, you’ll pay the same price you would if you went directly to the site. Occasionally, we may be able to offer a bonus or discounted link — we will state that when it’s available.
5. Our Editorial Standard
Even though we may receive compensation:
- We aim to recommend products/services that are genuinely useful for affiliates and online business owners.
- We do not guarantee your results with any tool, training, or platform.
- You are responsible for evaluating whether a product is right for your situation, budget, and business model.
- Where possible, we will disclose limitations or things to watch for (pricing tiers, upgrade paths, recurring fees, etc.).
Because affiliate marketing tools change over time, features and pricing may change after we publish. Always check the official product page for the latest details.
6. Placement of Short Disclosures
In addition to this page, we may place shorter disclosures:
- At the top of a blog post
- Near a button or link
- In the footer of the Site
- Inside an email newsletter (sent via MailerLite)
This is to make sure you see the disclosure before or close to the affiliate link.
Example of a short disclosure you may see:
“This post contains affiliate links. If you click and purchase, I may receive a commission at no extra cost to you.”
7. Third-Party Sites and Affiliate Links
When you click an affiliate link, you leave www.cure4affiliateblues.com and go to a third-party site. That site’s terms, privacy policy, and data practices apply there. We do not control what those sites collect or how they use your data.
8. Amazon and Other Programs (If/When Used)
If at any time we join Amazon Associates or similar programs, we will add the required program-specific disclosure (for example, “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.”).
9. Questions
If you have any questions about how we use affiliate links or about a specific recommendation, you can contact us through the Site’s contact page.
